Book Synopsis Tumor Angiogenesis by : Dieter Marmé

Download or read book Tumor Angiogenesis written by Dieter Marmé. This book was released on 2007-12-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tumor angiogenesis is one of the most prominent mechanisms driving tumor development and progression. This book is written by internationally renowned experts. Part 1 describes the basic mechanisms. Tumor-angiogenic signaling pathways are presented as new potential targets for anti-angiogenic therapy. Part 2 reviews the efforts made to validate new targets and to show efficacy in animals. Part 3 is devoted to the clinical development of the novel anti-angiogenic drugs and their use in clinical practice.

Book Synopsis Angiogenesis by : Michael E. Maragoudakis

Download or read book Angiogenesis written by Michael E. Maragoudakis. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proceedings of the 5th Biannual International Meeting on Angiogenesis: From the Molecular to Integrative Pharmacology, held July 1-7, 1999, in Crete, Greece. Angiogenesis, as a vastly complex biological process, has challenged researchers from all basic scientific disciplines, including pharmacology, biochemistry, physiology, embryology and anatomy. The significance of this phenomenon for the study of disease states has also interested clinicians from a number of specialist fields. This multidisciplinary work reflects the growth of awareness of concepts such as angiogenesis based therapy, the enormous therapeutic and commercial potential of which has attracted major research and investment in recent years. This volume, which aims to bridge the gap between basic and clinical methodology and understanding, presents the most up-to-date developments in this field.

Book Synopsis Angiogenesis Inhibitors and Stimulators by : Shaker A. Mousa

Download or read book Angiogenesis Inhibitors and Stimulators written by Shaker A. Mousa. This book was released on 2000-10. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The regulation of blood vessel growth underlies many normal biological processes such as reproduction, development, repair and wound healing. It also is a critical feature of pathological processes such as cancer, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, inflammatory arthritis and ischemic heart disease. What causes blood vessels to grow? What inhibits their growth? This book comprehensively describes the angiogenic proteins that enhance and inhibit normal and abnormal angiogenesis. It describes the potential therapeutic applications of basic fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, PECAM-1 and thrombospondin as well as other factors. The book brings together information about new blood vessel formation in many organ systems and comprises an outstanding resource on the state-of-the art in angiogenesis.

Download or read book Angiogenesis: In Vivo Systems, Part B written by . This book was released on 2009-02-12. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding how angiogenesis "works" and how to control it will have massive implications on the management, treatments, and ultimately the prevention of many common (and not so common) diseases. Angiogenesis is the growth of new blood vessels and is an important natural process in the body. A healthy body maintains a perfect balance of angiogenesis modulators. In many serious disease states, however, the body loses control over angiogenesis. Diseases that are angiogenesis-dependent result when blood vessels either grow excessively or insufficiently. Tried-and-tested techniques written by researchers that developed them, used them, and brought them to fruition Provides the "builder's manual" for essential techniques--a one-stop shop that eliminates needless searching among untested techniques Includes step-by-step methods for understanding the cell and molecular basis of wound healing, vascular integrin signaling, mechanical signaling in blood vessels, and vascular proteomics
